The reviews are being a bit too harsh, I felt that the movie was rather fun to watch, and although some things may have been unreasonable, it still completes its goal - entertaining the audience

I randomly found this on Demand. For a movie I never heard of it was decent. It starts off slow feeling like a TV movie, but gets more interesting the further you get into it. Nothing amazing about Reasonable Doubt, but worth watching forI randomly found this on Demand. For a movie I never heard of it was decent. It starts off slow feeling like a TV movie, but gets more interesting the further you get into it. Nothing amazing about Reasonable Doubt, but worth watching for movie lovers.Not a great movie, but I would be more critical of it I saw ads for it every other commercial. At least they knew this was not a big event movie while releasing it. Expand

Reasonable Doubt had incredulous plot holes that they made me want to wreck the DVD (I couldn't however. It was from the library...). Here's one (the biggest one): a district attorney thinks he'll be fine if he drives home intoxicated.

Critics didn't like this movie much, 19 of 100 at Meta Score is Overwhelming Dislike...

Samuel Jackson as a villain in the film may be one problem. Not that he wouldn't be a good bad guy, but he does rarely play one. Big Stars always wanna be loved... and in this one the Bad part about Sam is hard to find. He seems innocent throughout, no real 'I'm a killer' tension from the script. Even at the end it's hard to believe that 'The Jack Man' would be huntin' us!

The DA, the other main character in the film, isn't too bright... he does any number of boneheaded things, especially for someone who is supposed to be on the side of Justice. So there isn't much to cling to in our fabled 'good guy' area.

VERDICT: lacks punch

Médiocre sans être mauvais et de surcroît très générique, La loi du tueur fait penser invariablement à un téléfilm dans lequel Samuel L.

Jackson se serait égaré pour payer les réparations du toit ; ce ne serait pas la première fois, cet acteur pourtant excellent a en effet quelques daubes à son tableau de service.

Ainsi, bien que le scénario ait de la suite dans les idées, quelques détails sont traités par dessus la jambe et la réalisation terriblement conventionnelle ne l'aide en rien. En outre, le petit gars Dominic Cooper est bien gentil mais désespérément médiocre comme pour faire écho à l'ensemble du film. On ne s'y ennuie pas... mais on est loin de vraiment s'y intéresser !

In addition, the star, Dominic Cooper, is a rare commodity: a handsome young actor who is not annoyingly glib & cheeky like so many are these days. Samuel L. Jackson delivers a nicely understated performance, for once not hamming it up as he tends to do. All the supporting cast is good, including Erin Karpluk and Ryan Robbins; and it was nice to see the lovely Gloria Reuben again (remember her as Dr. Jeanie Boulet of ER?). Expand
